Ford Engine Displacement help....
I'm an admitted Chevy guy, but I plan to put a Ford in my Cobra. So please forgive me for the former and help me out with the latter.
I could use some help on some of the engine designations and displacements. For example, I know that a Windsor 351 weighs roughly 510lbs and is a small block. But Roush will bore and stroke one of these and create a 406?!?
What about the FE? Harder to find? Are these a 427 or 428 ci?
Side Oiler? Sounds too rare and expensive for my blood, but I'd like to know anyways.
And how about the "385" (429/460)? And why the sub-reference to the 429/460?
Thanks for the inputs/advice! I might be willing to "step up" to a big block to get that correct "sound", but I'd like to hear from the high horsepower small block crowd to determine that as well.
